Playfoam Combo 8-Pack

This is so similar to the floam I used to play with as a child, and it sure brings back memories. I work with kids who have autism, and this a great alternative to Playdoh. There are so many ways I can use this as part of their therapy. Although the Playfoam feels sticky, no residue is left on your hands. I love the bright colors - orange, blue, green, purple, sparkle green, sparkle yellow, sparkle pink, and sparkle orange. I wish there were more pieces of glitter throughout the sparkle foams. I will have to check back in with you to determine whether or not it dries out. I am going to try to use this at the table only, so that hair, dirt, and dust, don’t get stuck to it. The Playfoam has a slight styrofoam smell, but it doesn’t bother me. It would be neat if they came out with some scented Playfoam. It would be nice if the Playfoam combo pack came with a container, besides the plastic and cardboard packaging, to keep the foam in. Overall though, I think this is a wonderful toy and a decent value for the price. Disclaimer - Brilliant Minds is reimbursing me for the money I paid to try this product out.

Who doesn’t love being creative? This Playfoam set is a fantastic gift idea—perfect for birthday parties, rainy days, or even on-the-go fun while traveling. It’s not messy at all, which makes cleanup a breeze (huge bonus for parents!). Kids of all ages enjoy shaping and squishing it, and it keeps them entertained for hours. Highly recommend for creative, screen-free play!

Purchased to entertain a house full of kids during the holidays. They all loved it and found different ways to play with the foam. It cleaned up easily and didn't leave residue anywhere. Two cons however - if it falls onto the carpet or otherwise in an area with debris - fuzzies, fibers, or other dirt will get mixed into it (two of the kids made balls and played catch - the ball rolled under the couch and collected fibers from the carpet). Also - I would have preferred the separate colors to have lids (even if a one-time peel back foil) or separate packaging - there was no way to take one of the middle colors off of the package without opening the rest in the row (unless you cut the packaging). Regardless of these pet peeves - the product kept the kids entertained for hours and was fun to play with. I would certainly look for the product again for a gift.

I have bought this exact set multiple times! my kids adore it! I love all the colors. They are vibrant and fun. Also that when you mix them it doesn't act like playdough and turn one yucky color. It doesn't dry out so it lasts so much longer than other products. I have compared it to many other brands from other stores, and this one seems to be the best quality. It doesn't leave that weird residue that you can never get off no matter how hard you wash. It comes easily out of hair, rugs, fabrics, and kitty's tails. I just throw it in a ziplock baggie when they are done with it. I think it is well worth the price. I have paid the same consistent price for about a year now. I also like that I don't have to wait to see if it is going to go on sale, or worry that the price fluctuates and it isn't worth it so I have to wait. I buy this for my daughter's head start classroom all the time. all the parents love it and have asked for the link multiple times!

Kids lost interest with it after a few hours of use. I like it better than slime. It’s cleaner, but less interesting to the kiddos. They prefer the slime.

My children were gifted a ton of play-dough for Christmas and after the 4 billionth time they asked to play with it (to which I again said "maybe later") I went onto Amazon looking for a better alternative. And here it is! As other reviews have said, my kids immediately put it into one giant ball, but each ball holds its own against the others and doesn't look bad. My kids have also used this on many surfaces and it never once stained or stuck. I have noticed that sometimes I'll find one little ball stuck to something (or someone) but it's rare. Just last night my oldest pushed it onto her face to make an imprint and it didn't stick to her face or hair at all. It does feel a bit sticky when you're playing with it but once you stop holding it your hands don't feel sticky at all. So far I've had this for a month and it hasn't dried out even though we leave it out on the counter - it gets played with every single day. My one tiny complaint is about this package, not the product - that is, I didn't realize the bottom 4 colors are glitter. Granted, if you look really closely you can see that those colors are called "sparkle" but it doesn't mention glitter in the product description anywhere. I hate glitter so I threw them away, but this was only about $1 more than the 4 pack so I'm not too upset about it. Update 1/6/18 - So the original batch lasted about 3/4 months before getting too dirty to play with any more (it got dropped a lot and may or may not have taken a trip on the dog once or twice). However, it never dried out, and the new batch we got has held up longer (kids are older/drop it less...). I'd still highly recommend it.

The kids love it and so do I. No mess. So easy clean up. I keep it in ziplock bags and have had no problems.

I received this product today and was super excited to use it. I bought it with the intent of using it as a stress ball/fidget item. This product, however, has caused me a lot of stress instead of relieving it. For starters, it is rock hard upon opening. It is a five to ten minute process of massaging each section of Playfoam to even get it to a point of usability. From that point, it becomes EXTREMELY messy. Little foam balls began sticking to my hands once the product becomes malleable. It would take several frustrating minutes of picking the little pieces off before I could put away each section of Playfoam. Additionally, each time that I would play with the Playfoam I would end up with a significant layer of the adhesive that’s used to keep the foam together on my hands. However, the MOST frustrating part of this product is the irritation thatcher skin on my hands developed immediately afterwards. My hands began to burn, itch, and feel tight about fifteen minutes into my interaction with the Playfoam. Despite washing my hands several times and applying OTC hydrocortisone cream, my hands STILL feel massively uncomfortable, even though it’s been eight hours since I had contact with the product. As a result of the irritation, I am now unable to accomplish any of the plans that I had for my day as I have to keep reapplying cream to my hands and then wear cotton gloves in between applications of the cream in order to stave off the intense discomfort that I feel. Frustratingly, the packaging is basically unable to be reassembled upon opening so now I am stuck with a product that I’m allergic to. This was a total waste of money. I don’t recommend this product in the slightest.

This stuff is amazing. It doesn't dry out, stays sticky and hours of fun. Just make sure you have no issues with colours mixing cause you will not be keeping them separated for long. We keep ours in small dollar store containers with screw on lids to keep them stored.

Absolutely brilliant product. After watching the Youtube videos we decided to buy this for our little one, along with black plasticine, googly eyes, and plastic eggs with toys inside. Although they are much smaller than we first thought, this didn't stop our little one from thoroughly enjoying this wonderful playfoam, so much so that we've just bought another pack so she can make bigger things with it. As for the stickiness, yes, sure it's a bit sticky, but that doesn't take away from the fact that this is a great fun toy for young children, and curiously, adults as well, :-) What we did when we presented this to our little one was to put the foam around the plastic eggs, put googly eyes on them and some black plasticine in the shape of funny mouths. Just like the YT video that she loves. Watching her face light up was amazing, and she uses the plastic eggs to wrap the playfoam around so she can pretend she is opening the shapes just like they do in the YT video. She also loves making faces with them or other shapes and she spends ages using the playfoam, and I feel that anyone who doesn't 'get' this product is allowing their child to sorely miss out on creativity and improving their child's fine motor controls and hand/eye coordination skills which come in handy for when they are older. After all, what's a little mess compared to the fun a child can have playing with something that encourages creativity and intelligent play?
